Hunting Dinosaurs is a Popular Concept...
...as seen in Ray Bradbury's "A Sound of Thunder", L Sprague deCamp's "A Gun for Dinosaur", and even a Superman tale!
Here's another version of the trope, with an emphasis that'll startle you!
No concern for how killing numerous dinosaurs and disrupting the primordial environment might affect history!
It's just "Well, I got that out of my system, so don't pack up and go home to your mother, honey!"
Admittedly, the unknown writer, penciler Charles Nicholas, and inker Vince Alascia, who created this never-reprinted tale from Charlton's Mysteries of Unexplored Worlds #36 (1963) were writing a children's story, but still...it reminds me of "Time and Punishment", one of my favorite segments from The Simpsons "Treehouse of Horror" Halloween specials!
More Dino-Fun Next Week!
